About Nicolas Gitton

I am a cultural manager with 15 years of experience in the art world. Since 2018, I have been the director of the Fondation Maeght, a museum on the French Rivieria with a world-class collection and program. Previously I was a managing director for Paddle8.com, an online auction house, launching their London office. Prior to that, I worked for 6 years in New York with former Guggenheim director Thomas Krens in museum development projects around the world. I hold a master from HEC Paris (ranked #1 business school in Europe by the FT) and a Bachelor's degree in Art History.
